I used to have it on a VHS cassette, taped from the telly. I expect it's long gone but I'll give you a shout if it turns up...

I enjoyed that, thanks.
Had to laugh at the tissue sticking out of the shooters ears, some of the shooters had no protection at all. My ears can be grateful that I started shooting after all that became compulsory,

That tickled me as well. It was about the only ear protection in the whole piece. I used to shoot in the OTC with a bit of 4 by 2 stuffed in my lug holes!

That 1977 series and the book is what really opened my eyes to the world of shooting and motivated me to really get involved with guns as opposed to just shooting, the whole series is a gem. Dated but full of information.
Targetman you will have a pm.
